Apple today released the iOS 7.1 Update for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad users. According to the company, iOS 7.1 is packed with interface refinements, bug fixes, improvements, and new features. Here's a full list of the changes from the release notes:

Siri
- Manually control when Siri listens by holding down the home button while you speak and releasing it when you're done as an alternative to letting Siri automatically notice when you stop talking.
- New, more natural sounding male and female voices for Mandarin Chinese, UK English, Australian English, and Japanese.

iTunes Radio
- Search field above Featured Stations to easily create stations based on your favorite artist or song.
- Buy albums with the tap of a button from Now Playing.
- Subscribe to iTunes Match on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to enjoy iTunes Radio ad-free.

I like how the new slide to power off screen goes dark as you swipe across. I think that's a cool little UI transition. That being said, I'm not as crazy about the new round buttons in the Dialer They should have done something neat like the powering off for existing sliders._________________2011 Mac mini with 8GB of RAM

I wish they'd bring back a darker keyboard. I guess those buttons were a nice addition as well. I guess that is my biggest about iOS 7. It's so stark and boring. Not that I was a fan of all the skeuomorphism iOS 6, but most of the default apps looked much better.

I will come back to iOS and the iPhone when they increase the screen size. I miss certain things in iOS that weren't fulfilled in Android. It's just hard looking at that small screen for other things that are just as good. The largest two things being surfing the net and playing games.

THIS. I was hoping that Apple implemented an option in Settings>General in whether or not we could choose the black keyboard (which only appears when I log into the App Store on my iPad mini R) or the "plain-Jane" white one. Still, power-ups and power-downs are faster and there's much less needed animation, so that's good.

There's one thing I wish they'd pay closer attention to - mainly, converting speech to text in the Pages app. I was describing a new recipe in Pages just hours ago and the displayed results looks...well, not so great.
